Former Dun Cow Public House, (Green Energy Consultants, Autotrader House), 65 High Street, Gateshead - query about build date & when it changed from being a public house
^^^
Following up on recent posts
Do not think the current Dun Cow pub building dates from 1939, as noted by Alf in his post #7522
After spending a reasonable amount of time looking at "old interactive" maps and "old pictures" finally came across this one in the Gateshead Local Studies Collection with a bit more text compared to other pictures of the building on that site
Extra last sentence reading "This photograph shows The Dun Cow just before the third rebuild in the 1950s."
From the look of the structure currently standing it would appear to be a late 1950's rather than 1939 building
